The Taste of Summer

Mango Salad


At my house we have a little garden in which we grow a few different kinds of vegetables. For lunch one day I went out to pick some mixed greens from the garden. I found mangos, walnuts, lobster, and goat cheese and made a delicious salad. I've been wanting to expand my food photography portfolio so I decided to photograph the salad. Unfortunately, the salad turned out to look better than it tasted because I didn't wash the lettuce off as well as I should have, so it was very gritty. But I do like how the picture turned out!

Summer Greens


After washing the lettuce from the garden, I placed it in the salad bowl to start preparing my lunch. I wanted to photograph the salad in different stages, and the lettuce just looked so fresh compared against the wooden bowl.
